Why does horn go off on Peugeot 206 cc?

Here are some possible reasons why the horn in your Peugeot 206 CC might be going off:

_Airbag issue_

When a car's airbag is deployed, it sends an electrical signal to the horn to sound. If the airbag system is experiencing a fault or the steering column has an issue, the horn may go off unexpectedly.

_Faulty horn relay_

The horn relay is a small electrical switch that is responsible for connecting the horn to the car's battery. If the horn relay is faulty, it may cause the horn to go off even when it's not supposed to.

_Short circuit_

A short circuit in the electrical system may also cause the horn to go off. This could happen due to damaged wires or connectors.

_Faulty horn switch_

The horn switch is the button or lever that you press to sound the horn. If the horn switch is faulty, it may cause the horn to go off even when it's not being pressed.

_Aftermarket modifications_

If you have made any modifications to your car's electrical system, such as installing an aftermarket stereo, it could interfere with the horn circuit and cause it to malfunction.

If you are not able to identify the source of the problem or if the horn keeps sounding even after you have tried these steps, it is best to take your car to a reputable mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.
